Dear all,
If anyone would like a ticket for 'The Academic Book in the South' at the British Library (7-8 March 2016), please send me a message. My teaching got moved, so I can sadly no longer attend this.
Conference Abstract:
Speakers will address the production, dissemination, reading and reception of the academic book with specific focus on Africa, the Middle East and South Asia. The conference will consider, among other things, how scholars’ ability to access and produce knowledge is facilitated by digital technology and how academics can play a more active role in the creation of, and access to, books in the Arts and Humanities, both printed and digital. It will appeal particularly to scholars and practitioners with interests in authorship, publishing and librarianship and the history of the book.

All the best,
Angela
